I was driving my 2002 Saturn Vue (4 cyl, 2. 2 l engine, manual transmission) on the freeway. The engine stalled and then lost power. I fortunately was able to coast down the freeway exit, and I (with the assistance of a few kind hearted motorists) had to push my car out of the exit lane and on coming traffic. My car was towed through aaa to a service garage. The mechanic informed me that the timing chain broke, and in turn damaged the pistons, thus requiring me to replace the engine in my vehicle. Replacing the engine is estimated to cost between $1,800 and $2,800 depending upon the availability of the engine in my area. It is my understanding through reading today that there may have been a recall on this very issue with the Saturn 2. 2 l engines, but I was never contacted by general motors concerning this issue with the 2. 2 l engine. I am fortunate that I was able to exit the freeway safely, that other motorists were able to hold off traffic and assist me pushing the car to safety, and that my child, other family members, and I were not in an accident or injured due to this failure at high speed.

Engine stalled at various speeds, which was dangerous while on the road. Took vehicle to dealer for a check up, but the cause was undetermined. Vehicle accelerated too fast when pressing gas pedal to start auto after stalling.
